Here we are, one year later, in beautiful downtown St. Pete, Florida. Today’s weather was so perfect, I’d bet everyone up north that’s nearly frozen to death would sell their soul for.

And now, just like the families her stores serve, she is delighted to walk through the front doors again to share time with store employees and customers.
Good day everyone!
